Feeling Springy?

Yay spring is here :) As you revel in the extra hour of light, why not...

* Throw on some brightly colored rain boots (and make a splash during April showers!)

* Exercise outside. Endorphins + fresh spring air = instant feel-goodness

* Plan a picnic somewhere pretty. Grab a blanket, a bottle of wine, munchies (cheese, crackers, & fruit), iPod speakers, and a group of fun people and prepare to enjoy a wonderful afternoon in the sun

* Spring clean your closet (and be sure to display your sundresses front and center!)

* Plan a weekend getaway

* Read up on Mercury Retrograde (non-astrology nuts feel free to skip this one!)

* Make a spring-themed mix CD

* Find a new signature fragrance (floral scents are great this season)

* Develop your green thumb. Plant an herb garden or (if that sounds a tad labor intensive) place a pretty potted plant or an orchid on your windowsill

* Try out a new hairstyle (but always think twice before chopping it all of or dying it a crazy color on a whim!). Take it from someone who has suffered the repercussions of what I like to call "mood hair" and don't make any rash decisions (but if you still want a magenta pixi cut after a month, more power to you!)

* Break out the bike and go for a ride

* Run in a charity race

* Check out a farmers market (and don't forget your reusable grocery tote :) Yay being green!)

* Pick up a new hobby (I just started an art journal!)

* Blow bubbles (they're not just for kids AND apparently come in edible varieties, who knew?!)

* Commit to either being barefoot or wearing really cute high-heeled espadrilles for the next month (except of course during aforementioned April splashing, outdoor workouts, charity racing, and bike rides. Gosh you're gonna be busy!)
